BRUSSELS - The European Commission on Thursday told five EU countries - Belgium, Bulgaria, Finland, Poland and Sweden - to quickly put a 2008 EU law against racism into their statutes.
The five need to "fully transpose" into national law the EU rules that criminalise "serious manifestations of racism and xenophobia", the commission said in a statement, explaining it had sent formal letters to the respective capitals.
The EU executive already, in October last year, sent similar letters on the same matter to Estonia and Romania.
